One of the best in-ring workers of this generation, former WWE Champion Daniel Bryan has been a crucial part of Vince McMahon's company in the last decade. The storyline of Daniel Bryan going up against Triple H and The Authority with the WWE Universe behind him was one of the best ones in recent memory.

During an interview with WWE.com, Daniel Bryan revealed details of his first meeting with Vince McMahon. Bryan revealed how Vince McMahon takes very long pauses and looked at him. He even bought a $500 suit to impress the WWE Chairman.

"It was very awkward and very uncomfortable. Vince takes these very long pauses after he asks you a question and you answer him. He'll just look at you. Some will start talking, which I think he likes because it shows they're uncomfortable. I was uncomfortable, but I just looked at him. I was waiting for him to talk and he was waiting for me to talk. It was surreal. I was very nervous and even in my $500 suit — which I thought was the most expensive suit in the world — I knew I was inadequately dressed. This guy has the power to control your destiny."
